**NOTE: We are continuing to try to find the best way to record when we're in separate places. The audio in the first portion of the podcast is not to the level we would like. We're really sorry and hope you can power through, or at least fast forward to the second part which was recorded differently and is much easier to hear!**

Episode 107 - The Mind Explained

Craig Hoffman and Chris Gorres discuss "The Secret" from Bill Simmons's "Book of Basketball" regarding chemistry, unity and genuinely liking the people you work with. They discuss it both in a sporting sense -- why Steph Curry could be considered more valuable than Kevin Durant -- and an organizational sense that crosses sports and business.

Plus, Craig and Chris talk about the upcoming Onyx Mentorship and the Onyx Elite Soccer camp in January. The guys are thrilled to be working together on both, with Craig ready to make the trip to Tampa for the first time.

Episode 108 - The Secret

Craig Hoffman and Chris Gorres bounce around on this week's episode of the Train With The Best Podcast.

The guys start off talking about Chris's experience at Joanna Fennema's wedding (formerly Boyles, she would want us to use her new last name. We think she changed her instagram handle while walking back down the aisle! Also congrats to Jo and Parker!) where he had the chance to chat with legendary UNC Soccer Coach Anson Dorrance. Chris also learned that white people start their weddings on time, something he was not ready for!

The guys then talk about Craig's interview with Redskins limeman Trent Williams. The Pro Bowler has held out all year following a cancer diagnosis and what he thinks is mistreatment by the team. He'd stayed silent about the ordeal until recently and opened up to Craig Friday in an interview that made waves nationwide. The conversation wraps back into last week's discussion of "the secret." You can read the piece here and hear more background on the pod: https://thefandc.radio.com/trent-williams-opens-up-no-reason-to-stay-silent-anymore

They wrap up with a conversation about Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, which involves sensations of pain driven by nerves, not by actual structural restrictions. Chris talks about how to diagnose and treat a client who may be suffering from the ailment.
